>>”The hack came a week after social-networking firm Facebook said it had traced a cyber-attack back to China after some of its employee laptops were hacked.”<<

When you have an entire country that is working hard to bust into the encryption systems of the free world, holding the belief that your hard drive is secure is IMO simply idiotic.

The Chinese have the capacity to put a team of hackers on your password until they break it. Then they can put another team whose only desire is to infect your database with numerous hidden viruses.

Anyone who thinks that a ten, twelve or twenty letter password that gets changed quarterly is sufficiently secure isn’t thinking. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if our own government isn’t hacking some of these accounts. trusting strangers with your financial security isn’t being smart IMO.

The U.S. should cut every fiber cable running to China, Syria, Iran, Libya, Egypt and all of the other third world hellholes that hate us.

What would that leave, Canada and Isreal?
